EXECUTIVE MANDATE │ ORGAN APPOINTMENT
When authority must match responsibility.
In selected Executive Mandates, the responsible EPV Executive may be considered for temporary appointment as managing director where effective leadership requires formal corporate authority alongside executive control.
Suitability and acceptance are assessed separately for each mandate.
01 / THE CONTEXT
A deeper level of responsibility. Not a separate product.
Organ Appointment extends a qualified Executive Mandate only. Formal appointment does not sit beside operating leadership responsibility — it enables that responsibility where delegated authority is insufficient for effective delivery.
Authority.
Not a larger title. The authority required for a clearly defined responsibility.
02 / THE CONDITIONS
Formal responsibility requires dependable structures.
Personal appointment is considered only where ownership, governance, information and operating leadership support responsible delivery of the mandate.
- 01
Ownership & Governance
Clear ownership, representation and decision structures.
- 02
Management Information
Reliable financial and operating information for responsible decisions.
- 03
Operating Leadership
A functioning operating and finance leadership structure within the business.
- 04
Transition
A defined path for handover, succession and permanent leadership.
03 / SCOPE & DETAIL
Not every mandate should become an Organ Appointment.
Separate mandate review
Organ Appointment is considered only as an extension of selected Executive Mandates. Any formal appointment remains subject to a separate mandate-specific review, the required corporate, contractual and insurance steps, and final acceptance of the mandate by EPV.

The mandate dialogue first clarifies the situation, task, required authority and structural conditions. A standard Executive Mandate may remain the more responsible solution even where formal authority initially appears appropriate.
